The activist is not the man who says the river is dirty. The activist is the man who cleans up the river.
The river flows at its own sweet will, but the flood is bound in the two banks. If it were not thus bound, its freedom would be wasted.
If my ship sails from sight, it doesn't mean my journey ends, it simply means the river bends.
What is a fish without a river? What is a bird without a tree to nest in? What is an Endangered Species Act without any enforcement mechanism to ensure their habitat is protected? It is nothing.

We have an unknown distance yet to run, an unknown river to explore. What falls there are, we know not; what rocks beset the channel, we know not; what walls ride over the river, we know not. Ah, well! we may conjecture many things.

I had a very simple, unremarkable and happy life. And I grew up in a very small town.
